We spent 2 nights at the Skidaway State park near Savannah. This is the first state park we stayed in with this rig. Luckily it is the slow time of year for the park. While I was looking for a site a guy pulled up in his golf cart. He was a camp host there (volunteer) and he used to own a trucking firm in Seattle. He had me jump in his cart and we found a spot big enough for us to fit. It was a very nice park with trails and lots of trees. Unfortunately, no satellite reception or sewer hookup. Also, the road in the campground is narrow. I would stay here again, but only in off-season. The sites are first come, first served, so there is no guarantee that I could find a site that fits if they were busy.
We went to Savannah on Thursday. There are two pictures of stone streets by the river. In the old days, ships would come into Savannah to pick up cotton and other goods. They would arrive with all these stones that they would use for ballast to stabilize the ships when empty. When they got to Savannah they would toss the rocks on shore and load up with cargo. Savannah used the rocks to build roads and buildings.
We were walking past a bus tour booth with Roxy, and the lady in the booth said "Our tour busses are pet friendly." So we bought a couple tickets and the 3 of us hopped on the bus. It’s a very interesting city. We will have to stay in the area for a few days the next time we are in Georgia. The smallest house in Savannah is currently for sale. It’s just over 500 square feet, and they are asking around $250,000. They would probably take less.
Friday we left for Florida. We spent 3 nights by Ocala and visited with my brother’s cousin-in-law Linda, and her husband Wayne. They live in Ocklawaha, FL. That’s a hard name to spell and pronounce. I wish those Indians would just learn to speak American so it would be easier for the rest of us.
They have some bears in the area so we drove around about an hour looking for bears. We didn’t see any until we got back to their house and saw one running in the next lot over from them.

Before we left the Ocala campground we took a walk one evening and noticed a bald eagle in the tree. My camera/video recorder is 60 power, so I was able to get a close-up shot.
